MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Miami police are searching for a metal box full of ammunition, dropped from a Black Hawk military helicopter over the city during a training exercise late Wednesday, local media reported.
The exercise took place in northwest Miami-Dade County, in the US state of Florida. Police are asking anyone who has seen the box to contact authorities.
"As in all training exercises, the safety of service members and the local community is top priority, and every precaution will be taken to mitigate risks for the safety of all," Miami-Dade police said in a statement, as quoted by Local10 news website.
Police warned local residents not to touch or move the box, and to let law enforcement secure it.
